Re: Suse 9.1 OpenOffice problem

WOW amazing I guess it had to achieve something ... , first binary 
distros dont wholesale-install-crap-from-source and often require 
individual packages to be installed , this doesnt nessessarly mean the 
methods of install are broken , the fact it is suggests the package in 
question has been installed outside the main tree therefore there is 
nothing checking what needs to be installed as a dep (ie UE ) , or 
mirror contents have changed in the interim (which completely foobars 
gentoo ) , or it is an rpm based distro .... or any combo of the above .

See, Gentoo does it correctly.
